ADJUSTING VIDEO CONTENT BASED ON AUDIENCE EXPERIENCES
Computer technology for making sure that no viewer in an audience of multiple co-viewers will effectively be presented with audiovisual content portions that inappropriate and/or irrelevant for that co-viewer. Avoiding the effective presentation of inappropriate and/or irrelevant content to one or more of the co-viewers may involve currently conventional techniques such as blurring, scrambling, obscuring, distracting, etc.

EVENT PROGRESS DETECTION IN MEDIA ITEMS
One or more frames sampled from a first media item of an event are analyzed to identify one or more candidate event periods within the one or more frames. For each of the one or more frames, whether a candidate event period of the one or more candidate event periods satisfies one or more conditions is determined. Responsive to determining that the candidate event period of the one or more candidate event periods satisfies the one or more conditions, the candidate event period is identified as an actual event period used to divide a time the event. Mapping data that maps the actual event period to a timestamp associated with a respective frame of the one or more frames of the first media item is generated.
ZONE-ADAPTIVE VIDEO GENERATION
The present invention provides a system and a method for automatically generating an output video of a presentation given by at least one presenter, comprising a displayed content, and performed in an environment, the system comprising a plurality of zones defined within the environment, at least one camera, wherein the camera is configured to capture image frames of the presentation given by the presenter in the environment, means to detect when the at least one presenter changes zone, a configuration associating to each zone, a set of filming parameters for controlling the at least one camera when the at least one presenter is in said zone, wherein the system if further configured to change the filming parameters when the at least one presenter changes zone based on the configuration associated to the zone in which the at least one presenter is so as to provide an output video to the user with different filming parameters.
Methods and systems for generating and providing program guides and content
Systems and methods for identifying, assembling, and publishing content are described. A video content item, having a first time length, is identified by a system to be included in a program scheduled for a first time period. The video may be hosted on a third party system. A first time span within the first program is allocated for the video, wherein the first time span is longer than the first time length. The system determines, prior to or at the first time period, a time difference between a current length of the video and the first time span. At least partly in response to determining that the video has a time length shorter than the first time span, the system selects supplemental content based at least in part of the determined time difference to be streamed to user terminals over a data network within the first time period.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FLEXIBLE CONSUMPTION OF MEDIA CONTENT
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method including presenting a playlist of media content generated by a predictive model of preferences of a user of a system based on first prior media consumption associated with a subscription television service and second prior media consumption associated with an internet-based service, receiving a first selection of first media content from the playlist, presenting a menu of viewing devices for viewing the first media content, receiving a second selection of a first companion device for the first media content from the menu of viewing devices, transmitting the first selection and the second selection to a content provider, receiving the first media content from the content provider, and presenting the first media content. The content provider can transmit, to the first companion device, supplementary content, including internet-based content associated with the first media content, for presentation at a display.
